My animal self

If you look really close, you can see that humans and animals are not that different from each other. Some animals have qualities that us humans have. This is why we can compare ourselves with animals.
The first animal I compare myself with is the monkey. I think im like monkeys because they are intelligent, loving and compassionate. Also, because they are seen as a playful species that likes to do weird things. But mostly, I identify myself with monkeys because when they feel in danger or when they are disturbed, monkeys can get aggressive as a way to protect themselves and to claim respect, and that is something I do almost instinctively.
The second animal I compare myself with is the donkey. The word "donkey", or its traduction on spanish "burro", has always been used to refer to a person who doesn't think before he acts. I think of myself as an intelligent young woman; but even the wisest people can have dumb moments. In my case, my dumb moments happen pretty frequently and with the stupidest things.
For the third animal, I consulted my best friend and she told me that I can identify with a dog. That seemed odd, so I asked her why and she told me: "Dogs are man's best friend, faithful companions of laughter and sorrows, true friends, those who are with you through thick and thin, and, although not noticed, they are always with you accompanying you until the day of their death. That's why I identify you with a dog, because even in distance, you've been present whenever I needed you."
